Lotus Notes - My Old Friend

Category
A picture named M2
Lotus Notes has had one of the longest and most fascinating lifetimes in enterprise software. For many years I developed tools and utilities around the platform, and I still have a deep appreciation for what it achieved. But as the ecosystem has grown quieter and technology has moved on, so have some of my projects. If you’re curious about what I’m working on these days—mostly C and C++ development on Windows—you might want to take a look at my other sites as well (hint: https://bobsplace.no and https://bobsplass.no).

Are you using 1010music Blackbox? The Blackbox Buddy can be of help when you reorganize the content on the microSD-card

Category 1010music Blackbox

1010music Blackbox is a tremendous little sampler!

However, if you want to reorganize the content of the microSD-card, such as move your sound packs and samples around, you quickly find out that your Blackbox-preset files does not play anymore. This  is also true for additional Ableton-presets that Blackbox has exported for you when you packed your projects. This can be illustrated like this:

Important fix to Notes Import Export Library if you have percent-symbols in column-names

Category Import Export Library
Aug 4th, 2020: A new release of Notes Import Library (IEL) has been released, fixing a bug with percent-symbols in field- and column names

If you had an Excel-spreadsheet with column-headers containing percent-symbols (like for example "Whatever %" or "% Complete"), IEL would have problems saving and loading Import- or Export Specification files. If you didn't save specification file, the import- or export, worked as designed.

The symptom of problem with percent-symbols, was that IEL couldn't map the fields properly when you loaded the specification files.

New year - and new version of Import Image 2 Lotus Notes

Category Import Image 2 Lotus Notes
January 2nd, 2020: Release 1.9.0.1284 of Import Image 2 Lotus Notes (II2LN) is out. The II2LN Command Line Client has been revamped to accept parameters in a bit more streamlined fashion. No need to remember the different switches such as -targetpath and -target, unless you want to! This means that the command sequence is now:

ii2ln.exe <sourcefile or wildcard> [optional targetfile] [optional import options] [optional switches]

This makes it extremely easy to convert an image file from one format to another. For example you can convert a jpg to png with this command:

ii2ln MysourceImage.jpg MyTargetImage.png

The rotateexif-switch has also been fixed, so it first check the EXIF Orientation on your image and then "normalizes the orientation". II2LN also set the EXIF Orientation correctly if image is rotated. This way you will never have issues with orientation again. The following command normalizes the orientation for all images in the current folder.

ii2ln *.* -rotateexif

ii2ln *.* -re (do the same thing as above, with the abbreviated switch for rotateexif)

Remember that you can add the -recursive switch to process images in all subfolders too.

II2LN's ability to grab web-pages has also been updated to accept https.Simply use and URL instead of a source file, such as:

ii2ln https://www.vcode.no/web/vcode.nsf/htdocs/proudprogrammer vcode.jpg

... to grab the complete content of the specified n https://www.vcode.no/web/vcode.nsf/htdocs/proudprogrammer to the target file vcode.jpg. Remember, you can combine this will other import options too, to grab for example, just a piece of the web page. The command below grabs the logo-part from the previous web page:

ii2ln https://www.vcode.no/web/vcode.nsf/htdocs/proudprogrammer vcode.jpg "SetWebGrabClipRect:420,860,300,250"
